❓ What is a weed grinder?

A weed grinder is a device used to mill cannabis buds into smaller, consistent grains that burn or vaporize evenly when added to bowls, wrapped up in joints or blunts, or vaped. Grinders are typically manual, but electronic versions also exist.

💯 What makes a good weed grinder?

While this is largely down to personal preference, a good weed grinder will be sturdy, portable, have a smooth action, and provide fine, evenly milled herb.

🧐 How to use a weed grinder?

Remove the lid of the grinder, exposing the teeth inside. Tear apart one or two buds and place the pieces inside the device. Place the lid back on top, and twist to grind. This will mill the herb inside; then, it'll be ready to use.

🪥 How to clean a weed grinder?

Be sure to keep your grinder clean after each use by brushing away the weed remnants and cleaning the teeth. A toothbrush should do the trick. For deep cleaning isopropyl alcohol will come in handy.

⬇️ Does weed lose potency after grinding?

No, grinding your weed doesn’t make it less potent. How your weed is stored has the greatest effect on its potency. Although, if you don’t have a kief catcher, you may miss out on some of the trichomes that become dislodged during the grinding process.

🔪 How fine should you grind weed?

You want to mill the herb small enough that it will distribute evenly throughout a joint or bowl, but not so small that air will struggle to move through. Conversely, large pieces will cause your joint to canoe, and take longer to heat in a vaporizer.

💰 How much is a grinder for weed?

Grinders vary in price from quite inexpensive, for the most basic devices, to somewhat pricey for more elaborate models. It's entirely possible to pick up a device that does the job well and won't break the bank, though if you want a grinder with a pollen screen and kief chamber, this may cost a bit extra.

🤢 Does weed go bad in a grinder?

Cannabis should be stored in an airtight container when not in use. If left in a grinder over an extended period, it may lose some potency and flavour, and it will become dry and harsh to smoke. And if, for whatever reason, it gets wet, there's the possibility it will grow mould. Try to avoid this at all costs!

⚖️ Is it illegal to have a weed grinder?

It is not illegal to own a weed grinder. In fact, grinders can also be used for tobacco or herbs and spices. Obviously, each country's laws differ, but as a rule of thumb, if your grinder doesn't have any weed in it, it doesn't run the risk of being “illegal”.

✈️ Can you take a weed grinder on the plane?

As mentioned above, as long as it is free from any cannabis remnants, you can safely travel with a grinder in your baggage. Just be sure to give it a thorough clean. However, it's undoubtedly worth carrying out research on the individual policies of the countries you're visiting so you're not caught out by stringent laws.

Buy your perfect weed grinder at Zamnesia

As one of the main accessories in a stoner's toolbox, the grinder allows smokers and vape enthusiasts to mill their favourite strains to perfection. Grinders come in all shapes, sizes, and materials, and some are much more elaborate than others. Luckily, we're here to break it down so you can make an informed decision during your next grinder purchase.

Advantages of using a weed grinder

While you can sit and pull apart bud with your fingers, grinders make short work of the task, and they make for a more consistent and enjoyable smoke to boot. Not only are grinders completely portable and take just seconds to use, but many devices come with “pollen screens” to catch any kief that falls through. This can later be used to sprinkle atop bowls or joints, or to create hash. Nothing goes to waste!

Types of weed grinders

There are many different types of grinders available on the market. Typically, manual devices are favoured due to their long history and proven consistency. However, it's entirely possible to purchase electronic grinders that, with a simple press of a button, instantly mill your herb without the need for any physical input.

Grinders can range from simple single-chamber devices to more advanced multi-chamber units. From here, they can vary dramatically in size, type of grinding “teeth”, and material. Everything from metal and wood to acrylic and hemp fibre is available, with pricing to suit.

The best cannabis grinder brands

Several prominent companies dominate the grinder game, including Marley Natural, which harnesses all-natural wood to create their grinders, and SLX, which utilises a non-stick coating on their devices to stop any wayward herb from clutching to the inside of the grinder. However, there are many unique and ergonomic offerings available from a wide variety of other top brands, such as Royal Queen Seeds and EHLE.
